Notes

Multiple recent news articles (Dec 2025 - Apr 2026) discuss restart plans, talks, and discussions about restarting the refinery, with dependencies on Venezuelan oil access and regional partnerships. However, no articles indicate actual operational restart has occurred. The refinery remains closed but restart is actively being planned.
